TTPB who got accepted: Did you have an interview? If you don't mind, could you please share your field?

TTPB, Same for me. It shows awaiting english proficiency, official transcript and GRE scores. although it was showing completed previously!!! extremely confusing

TTPB: Can you let me the name/initials of your POI ? (The PhD - MS Track poster)

Area: Theory (Quantum Computation). Got interviewed by POI. 3 years of research experience. A publication and a presentation in reputed journals, another publication on the way. International student. CG: 8.9/10

PhD-Track MSc

avg GPA, multiple first author publications, great letters of rec including one from a well known prof at Berkeley. i think my GPA screwed up my chances :(

TTPB: I still have "Under Review" in my application. Haven't heard anything back, though.

Does anyone else still have "Application Submitted (Active)"? I've seen a few saying they're still "Under Review" but I don't even have that...

My application checklist changed several days ago. It shows Awaiting English Proficiency (Official) Awaiting Graduate Test Scores (Official) Awaiting Transcript (All Official) I don't know why. Only several days ago it still shows all materials received, and I think I have submitted all the materials two months ago. Does anyone have the same situation as me?

TTPB: I think you might not have a great time in any city in the US if you're afraid of black people.

Can you all just stop the nonsense? This is not RacistCafe.

Anyone have updates on the timelines? Have all acceptances gone out?

Does UMass give out rejects in the end? Anyone got any idea?

TTPB: Sorry other trolls have ruined the credibility of this forum, but I promise you these are legit.

Biochem major, comp sci minor. 1 year research experience in bioinformatics lab. 3.02 GPA. Strong GRE (168/165), strong LoR from research advisors, strong SoP. Last 60 credit hour GPA of 3.8. Received acceptance email at 1:30 AM EST.

TTPB asking whether admits are still possible: I believe early PhD offers have gone out now, but I do not think this means that admissions are done -- they will probably keep making decisions over the upcoming months.

Lol. Thee below two posts are obvious trolls right? A lot of discussion and they appear out of thin air.

Received email yesterday on an update to my application status. Logged in today and it shows that I am accepted. Much needed.

TTPB: UMass didn't allow deferrals to Fall 2021 for Fall 2020 admits. They only allowed deferrals to Spring 2021 with a deposit. I got an admit for the MS program (applied for MS/PhD) for Fall 2020 but had to decline due to this.
